Thanks for sharing the link. I believe dealing with the code adds a lot more complexity to my project. On the other hand, I’d like to visually compare the websites over time, which is easier to do using screenshots.

I'm building an app that takes a screenshot every hour from some news websites. It's is a small python script running on my raspberry pi 5 and for now I'm saving the images there. I'm planning to build a front-end app to explorer how each website changes over the course of a day, focusing only on the top of the landing page.

I love the timeline! Are we limited to search for some keywords? I tried some countries but couldn’t find them in the results!

Fair point. I’ll add it.

Oh, this is a great idea. I'd love to try it and maybe I could add this feature to the current one! Thank you.

Hi, I created the app. I appreciate all of your comments. I know some may find the result of a book not concise or accurate. One issue was that I couldn't afford the price of a better LM service. At first, I tried a free tier of Gemini, but its results were disappointing. Later, I switched to DeepSeek and got better results.

herol3oy··on Mermaid: Diagramming and Charting Tool
Actually I've never thought about it. It's no complicated app. But I'll clean it up and will post it. Thanks for the idea.

I created a front-end application + Ollama where, when you input a book name, it generates a graph using Mermaid, illustrating all character relationships
